Been looking around and I know in the near future I will need some tires.

I run Nitto 555r right now and love them. but my step father works at Michelin in SC and gets deals on tires. So I was thinking of a Set of Michelin SP2 ZP, anyone run these?

I recently had Michelin PS2 non run flats installed. I like 'em.

I am getting new tires within the next two weeks. I am going with the Nitto NT01's

I run 285/40/18's on the rear atm, how much diff would a 315 or 345 make? I am soon to be pushin over 500rwhp. I know I will still spin but trying to control it some lol

I am currently running Michelin PS2's (non run flats).

They are o.k. I am less than thrilled with them.

I'm running nitto neo gen 305/ They are pretty flush with the finderwells and do not rub the inside (barely). If you went anything wider without tubing, you'd probably have them stick out or rub (depending on the offset of the wheels you went with).

I have the PS2, non-run flats 345's. I found out below 70 degrees, the tires do not grab until warmed up. I don't think they make PS2 runflats in the 19" 345's yet. I have a tire patch, fix a flat and compressor so I am not worried about a flat tire. Plenty of tires are more sticky than the PS2, but they also wear out quicker and also suk in the cold weather.

Those are what I run when I do spirited driving and treaded rubber the rest of the time. Those NT-01s are sticky and have my Vette handle on rails. Treaded tires for me are so I can drive in all weather and nothing sticks with my HP levelhttp://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c293/elsloan22/emotions/vettescape.gif

I am looking forward to some reviews of the NT05R's.

Any Suggestions in the 325/30ZR19's?
